Compton Art & History Museum Shines Light on Self Discovery

According to the values of the Compton Art & History Museum; reclaiming one’s identity is an act of social justice in its own right. Spearheaded by Abigail Lopez-Byrd and her husband Mark Byrd, the museum holds a new light that cultivates community growth and reflects the history found in surrounding neighborhoods. The museum looks to blend the multicultural experience of living in South L.A. by shaping the narrative found in art.
